Customer Review
- Reviewed in the United States on January 24, 2025The Good - I compared this with another model that had a sensor in the front. I am glad that this sensor is on the side of the faucet. Very smart move. Can't tell you how many times I accidentally turned the thing off while washing pans.
Needs Improvement (for me) - let me preface this that this will PROBABLY not effect the majority of purchasers, but I am a cat owner. My prior faucet did not have the sensor work, unless the faucet was already ON. (The handle had to be pulled away from the faucet in order for the sensor to work.) This model does not work once you manually turn the water on. The handle being pulled out was a failsafe to keep my addicted aerated drinking kitty from being able to activate the faucet herself. Now I have concerns that my kitty will figure out the motion activation and help herself while I'm not around. The other model allowed for the temperature and speed of the faucet to be preset when turned off via sensor and the handle pulled out. This model only allows for the preset setting. I don't like this feature, to be frank. I have concerns it will turn itself on and off. I keep the motion feature off, unless I know I will be in the kitchen cooking and doing dishes, and turn it off once I am done. This almost completely defeats the purpose of this device. I paid extra for the wave feature, but ended up hating how it is set up. I just got my countertops done, and they took the old faucet with them, so I didn't bother returning this, although, i would have been tempted to as I had something better suited to me in the past. Install was clear and simple enough. No issues with the product.
I wouldn't purchase it again. Even if I had a cat free home, I liked the idea of the sensor not being able to activate unless the handle was in the on position. It was an easy way to make me feel like the water wouldn't magically turn on with low batteries or a malfunction of sorts. I am less confident in this faucet.
Overall, it's not bad, but I'd hoped for more.
